COMMISSION ANNOUNCEMENTS

EDGAR SERVICE TEMPORARILY DISRUPTED

Due to a power failure, the SEC's EDGAR Computer system located in Alexandria, Virginia has experienced a major system failure which precludes it from being able to receive, process or disseminate electronic filings. Until further notice, all filings must be submitted electronically to the SEC's EDGAR back-up system located at SEC Headquarters in Washington, D. C. The phone number for submitting an electronic filing to the back-up system is (202) 639-9800.

Public access to filings will be delayed approximately 90 minutes following receipt and acceptance processing. It will be possible to access both new and historical filings through any EDGAR commercial information service. (Press ReI. 97-19)

ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS

SANCTIONS IMPOSED ON FORMER ASSOCIATED PERSONS OF THE STUART-JAMES CO.,INC.

On March 19, the Commission issued its opinion in this matter. The Commission held that C. James Padgett and Stuart Graff, former principals of The Stuart-James Co., Inc., a former registeredbroker-dealer (firm), were responsible for fraudulent markups in the sale of securities, distributed fraudulent sales scripts used by the firm's sales agents, and failed to supervise in connection with violations of the antifraud provisions of the securities laws byformer branch managers of the firm. The Commission determined that it is in the public interest to bar them from association with anybroker or dealer. In addition, the Commission found that Robert Gibbs, Shaw Sullivan, John Sutton, and John Beaird, former branch managers of the firm, instituted fraudulent policies and practicesof "no net selling" and "tie-ins." The Commission found it to be in the public interest to bar the four former branch managers, providedthat, after a period of two years, they may apply to become

associated in a non-supervisory, non-proprietary capacity. Finally,the Commission determined that Dirk Nye, a former regional vice president with the firm, failed to supervise in connection with violations of the antifraud provisions of the securities laws byformer branch managers of the firm. The Commission held that it is in the public interest to bar Nye, provided that, after a period of four years, he may apply to become associated in a non-supervisory,non-proprietary capacity.
